Wang Lin will not discuss the matter of An Jiafu with Li Jiaxin for the time being, and asked: "Eat Western or Cantonese cuisine?"

"Does there be Cantonese restaurants in Shanghai?" asked Li Jiaxin.

"You're the first time you're in the mainland?"

"Well, I haven't been here before."

Wang Lin expressed his understanding and said, "There are many restaurants in Shencheng, and dishes from all over the world can be eaten. French, Japanese and Cantonese cuisines are available. Xinya Cantonese Restaurant and Hongfangzi West Restaurant are all old restaurants that have existed since the folk period."

Reisi asked with a smile: "What dishes do you like to eat?"

"I'm casual, but I still prefer domestic dishes."

"Then eat Cantonese cuisine."

Wang Lin nodded and drove to Xinya Cantonese Restaurant.

Xinya Cantonese Restaurant was once famous.

During the Republic of China, the guests in Xinya Restaurant were all high-ranking officials, merchants and compradors, and social celebrities at that time.

In order to increase varieties and promote consumption, Xinya cooperated with the "Flying Tiger General" to use the "Flying Tigers" aircraft to airlift ham and Hami melon from other provinces to supply to Shencheng. Xinya used this masterpiece to promote it. Newspapers in Shanghai have published news, published advertisements, and invited well-known people from all walks of life to taste it, making Xinya more famous.

Kirk, Song family and others all had a meal here.

Xinya Cantonese Restaurant is on the bustling Nanjing Road.

Wang Lin and Li Jiaxin walked into the store and chose a elegant seat to sit down.

This is the first time Li Jiaxin has come to the mainland and is curious about everything she sees.

What she saw and heard in the mainland was much better than she had imagined before she came.

After all, Shencheng was once a foreign market. Although it has not developed much in recent years, its foundation has been still there. There are European-style foreign buildings everywhere, with prosperous economy, developed commerce, and convenient transportation. It is not as good as the modernization of Xiangjiang, but it also has a unique style of an old city.

Moreover, since she got off the plane, Wang Lin drove a luxury car to pick her up the plane. She lived in the richest garden villa and ate the most expensive Cantonese restaurant.

Luxury cars, garden villas, and Xinya Cantonese restaurants were enjoyed in the 1920s and 1930s. Only the top rich and upper-class people at that time could enjoy it.

As soon as Rene arrives, she can enjoy the top-notch everything in Shanghai, and of course she thinks it’s very good here.

Wang Lin ordered a few dishes, Xinya shrimp, scallion chicken, smoked pomfret, and oyster sauce beef.

In the last year of the 1980s, the social atmosphere in Shencheng was relatively open compared to other parts of the mainland. Businessmen from all over the world also had a lot of contact with each other, and were one of the gathering places for foreigners.

Moreover, Shencheng is very inclusive. Whether it is domestic or foreign cultures, customs, and catering, they can coexist peacefully here.

A city can become bigger because of its inclusiveness.

Reisi Michelle Reis is fashionable and avant-garde dressed, with a super beautiful appearance. Although she is eye-catching, she is not as attractive as the audience.

The dishes at Xinya Cantonese Restaurant are very suitable for Reis’s taste. She ate while talking to Wang Lin.

"Why did you think of going to Ms. Tang to ask my company's phone number?" Wang Lin asked.

Li Jiaxin smiled and said, "Because I miss you. And Miss Tang contacted me first. She made so much money into my bank card, of course she would notify me."

"Oh, what are you talking to her?" Wang Lin asked.

"I didn't say anything, I asked you about your contact information in the mainland." Li Jiaxin said, "Who is she from you? I think she cares about you too!"

"A good friend." Wang Lin replied.

After dinner, it was less than six o'clock, and for the people of Shencheng City, it was the peak hours of get off work.

It’s late in summer, but it’s still bright.

Of course, the street life in Shencheng is not as prosperous as Xiangjiang, but it is also very lively.

Wang Lin took Reis to a few famous street markets.

Li Jiaxin's curiosity and freshness are as strong as Li Wenjuan's first time in Xiangjiang. When she saw anything she had never seen before, she had to stop and check it out, talk to the store owner for a few words, and buy it if she likes it.

At this moment, Li Jiaxin, walking beside Wang Lin, is like a beautiful girl next door, without any star airs. She is lively and cute, and is active by nature, and she is kind and polite. She always says thank you when dealing with people. She looks more educated and quality than Li Wenjuan.

Li Jiaxin was also very interested in the specialty delicacies such as five-spice beans, butterfly crisps, pear paste candy, and Qibao square cake sold in Chenghuang Temple. They each bought some to eat and have fun.

When you see wooden carvings, bamboo carvings, velvet embroidery and other bamboo crafts in Shencheng, you will curiously pick them up and play with them for half a day. After reading them, you will feel embarrassed and will pay for it.

On the Quqiao Bridge in Yuyuan, she would stop and watch the swimming fish in the pond, buy some fish food and feed the fish with Wang Lin.

The lights are on, and night falls.

Wang Lin took her to the Bund.

The Bund is a holy place for young people to fall in love.

When young men and women in Shanghai talk about their partners, they often measure the Bund with the footsteps of love. From Dongdaming Road, walk to Waibaidu Bridge. On Dongdaming Road, there is a long white wall along the Huangpu River. There are some large iron gates that refuse outsiders to enter. In those old-fashioned tiger windows, there are occasionally a young beauty in foreign silk who leans against the window, looking at the foreign ships anchored by the river, listening to the long sound of the whistle, as if she is looking forward to a good man who is looking forward to a faraway return.

In the era of planned economy, Shanghai Bund is the "Aegean Sea" in the eyes of couples across the country, and the first choice for marriage and travel is Shencheng.

In addition to purchasing and bringing back specialties to Shanghai for yourself and friends, couples who travel and get married can also hold hands, stroll on the Bund, and romantically embrace and kiss each other on the "Love Wall".

The "Love Wall" is actually a half-person-high low wall made of bricks and cement. The top of the wall is a gentle slope of "people". The wall is just looking at the river and enjoying the feeling of the wind blowing on the face. You have to turn around to see the scenery. The architecture of Puxi's Countries is spectacular and records the past history of the Bund.

At that time, there was no cross-river bridge on the Huangpu River, no tunnels at the bottom of the river, and no sightseeing Pujiang cruise ships on the river. There were no river avenues in Pudong, and there were few tall buildings. There were rough shapes and billboards on cement piers were considered tall and somewhat eye-catching.

At night, there were some sparse lights falling by the river on Pudong. Looking further away, the whole Pudong was silent in a darkness, forming a huge contrast with the dazzling lights on the Bund of Puxi.

The most romantic view on the river is seagulls. You can see their free and relaxed figures, and you can hear their chirping when you fly closer.

Common scenarios are large foreign passenger and cargo ships that often sound their whistles, as well as diesel ships carrying coal and cargo trucks with large and small bows and sterns, dragging a long "dongdongdongdong" sound, and emitting bursts of black smoke.

The viewing on the river bank was not enough, so Wang Lin took Reisi and took ferries from different ferries, back and forth, embracing each other and watching the Bund lights on the river.

"Why is it called the Lover Wall here?" Li Jiaxin stroked the love wall with her hands and asked Wang Lin curiously.

Wang Lin smiled and said, "This is a product of history."

Li Jiaxin said: "Has there been any touching love story here?"

Wang Lin said: "We in Shanghai are generally in a difficult housing conditions. It is common for us to live in the same room for two or three generations. When young men and women reach the age of falling in love, if they go to each other's home, they must whisper under the attention of their family members. The embarrassment can be imagined, and they can only go outdoors without any help."

"Ah? Is there no park?" Li Jiaxin asked.

Wang Lin said: "The park is generally not open at night except for midsummer. During the night park opening, militia, picketing, and joint defense teams often patrol the dark places to ensure that public places are not polluted. At that time, there were no cafes, bars, and dance halls to soak, so there were only roads where couples were involved in a large number of activity places. Therefore, swinging the road became synonymous with love. Couples swinging the road naturally wanted to swing to a place where there were few people and dim lights."

Reis Ka-xin said: "No era can stop people from falling in love!"

Wang Lin said: "Lovers can have a good time when they go to a remote corner to fall in love. Of course, they can kiss them when they want to, and hug them when they want to. However, they are also prone to robbery, insults from street walks, Ah Fei, or overly enthusiastic protection from the pickets. Whether the couples resist or escape, they always leave a memory of lingering fear. Therefore, our couples in Shanghai all want to find a place that is both hidden and safe. The Bund lover wall has gradually formed naturally. There are many people here and the security is good. The two people lie on the wall, facing the river, and the probability of being recognized by acquaintances is also very low. Moreover, there are many tourists here and there are many foreign tourists. If men and women are intimate occasionally, they will not attract attention."

"Lovers' Wall! What a romantic name!" Li Jiaxin smiled, took Wang Lin's hand and said, "Let's date here too! No one will recognize you."

Wang Lin smiled awkwardly, lay on the wall with her, watching the seagulls flying on the river, and listening to the whistle honking.

"Someone is proposing!" I don't know who shouted.

The crowds in front of the love wall all rushed towards the other side.

A young man in a short-sleeved white shirt, kneeling on one knee, proposing to a woman with short hair.

This scene may have happened suddenly, because looking at the two of them, they obviously did not make any preparations.

There are neither romantic roses nor beautiful candlelight on the scene.

Someone cheered and said, "I don't even have a ring! Girl, don't agree!"

"That's right, it's so insincere! Girl, don't take advantage of him!"

"Girl, go into love with me! I'll buy you a gold ring!" Someone whistled.

The man who proposed to the marriage obviously did not expect that the onlookers not only did not bless them, but also gave them a cheer.

The two proposed marriage in front of the love wall, but encountered such an embarrassing scene!

The short-haired woman was ashamed of shame. She covered her face with her hands, fearing that she would be recognized by her acquaintances. She whispered: "Get up quickly! You're so ugly!"

The river breeze on summer nights makes people cool and comfortable, and there are many people walking by the river.

It is rare to see the excitement, and pedestrians are gathering around.

Some people also shouted "Okay".

Some people also shouted: "Girl, marry him!"

Those who make fun of it are all young men, and those who say it is big girls and the elderly.

Wang Lin looked at this scene and wondered if this man had read too many novels? A girl who loves you doesn’t need to ask for it, and a girl who doesn’t like it is useless to ask for it!

When love transitions to marriage, it is not possible to succeed by asking for it. Prepare a wedding house, buy a three-turn and one-click, and bring a bride price to propose to your parents' home. It is more useful than kneeling here and is more sincere.

A girl who really knows how to think will not be lost in love at this moment, because marriage is always realistic. After this kneeling, it will be implemented in the conversation between the two families.

Wang Lin shook his head gently: "Looking at the girl's expression, you will know that the marriage proposal was not successful."

"I found that you don't believe in love!" said Li Jiaxin.

"Love?" Wang Lin has heard her mention the word love more than once!

Is it true that in Michelle Reis, he is really looking forward to a beautiful love?

"What a wonderful love!" said Rene Li, "If I were that girl, I would definitely agree to marry him."

Wang Lin said: "Where do you not love me? Marry?"
